My How They've Grown!

Unbelievable that they look like real little mice already!  More pictures added to the photo album as well.

Micelet Update

All nine are still present and accounted for.  It's amazing to see how they've developed in just a few days.  You can see which ones are going to have colored fur (like their mom, Patches) as opposed to the ones that will probably be plain white (like their dad, Patrick).

Micelet Pictures

They aren't pretty, that's for sure.

I will try and take a picture of them each day to chronicle their development, and will put them in the photo album I'm going to create for them.

Micelets

We had a crazy busy weekend!  First, Patches the mouse had nine little micelet babies (this wasn't a surprise for us, and we were asking for it by letting Patrick and Patches live together).  The kids were so excited about it!  I have pictures that I will try to upload and we are going to try and take a picture of them each day to document how they grow! 

Sunday I took the kids to the Zoo and we had a great time there as well.

I tried to get Eagle into his doggie carrier that I used last time I took him on the plane, but he doesn't fit.  Then this morning I tried to weigh him and he's between 15 and 16 lbs, so the reality is I can't take him on the plane with me when I fly up to New Hampshire on Saturday to pick up the Jeep.

When I dropped him off at Doggie Day Camp this morning, I asked Sandi if she could just keep him from Friday until Tuesday when I will pick him up after work and she said that would be fine.  I'm just bummed that I won't have him to keep me company.  Hopefully the boyfriend will be able to meet me somewhere along the way after he is done working for the week.  He may be able to jump seat to some airport that is along the route I'm taking.
